Enhancing students Laboratory Safety rule awareness: The case study of biologystudents in Dilla College of Teachers Education, Dilla, Ethiopia
Journal of Agricultural Science and Botany, 2018Co-Authors: Ashenafi Emiru TekaAbstract:Laboratory Safety involves the prevention of and response to Laboratory emergencies. Good prevention is far better than someone getting hurt. Hazard codes, chemical labels, and material Safety data sheets are the first sources of information that help us prepare to work safely in the Laboratory. The Laboratory can be but not necessarily a dangerous place. When intelligent precautions and a proper understanding of techniques are employed, the Laboratory is no more dangerous than any other classroom. The chemistry Laboratory can be a place of discovery and learning. However, by the very nature of Laboratory work, it can be a place of danger if proper common-sense precautions aren't taken. Before the action plan, this study shows that some students have a misunderstanding about Laboratory Safety rules. After the action plan implementation and evaluation from the feedback of the students I can speak that the problem is almost resolved. The students’ Laboratory Safety rule awareness is better than the previous. That is they know about Laboratory Safety rule and its importance. The students also perform the Laboratory Safety rule what they know and learned in the Laboratory properly. Therefore, the result of this research shows that the students’ Laboratory Safety rule awareness is improved and changed.

Proceedings of the 2014 University of California Center for Laboratory Safety Workshop
Journal of Chemical Health and Safety, 2016Co-Authors: Imke Schröder, James H. Gibson, Nancy L. WayneAbstract:The goal of the University of California Center for Laboratory Safety (UCCLS) 2014 Workshop was to bring together researchers and Environmental Health & Safety (EHS (1) Impact of Regulations and Policies on Lab Safety; (2) Carrots versus Sticks: Impact on Compliance and Safety; and (3) Impact of Beliefs and Attitudes on Safety. Based on an exit survey, 95% of the participants rated the workshop as overall productive or very productive, and 86% generated potential research ideas on Laboratory Safety. An added benefit of the workshop was that 76% of the participants changed their perception on Laboratory Safety and 86% collected ideas for overcoming barriers to improving research Safety in their home institution or lab. Following the workshop, a Request for Proposals was sent to all meeting participants to support research projects in Laboratory Safety.

Laboratory Safety attitudes and practices a comparison of academic government and industry researchers
Journal of Chemical Health and Safety, 2016Co-Authors: Imke Schröder, James H. Gibson, Debbie Yan Qun Huang, Olivia Ellis, Nancy L. WayneAbstract:A survey on Laboratory Safety, conducted in 2012, provided the basis for comparing Safety culture attributes of respondents from academic (n = 991), government (n = 133) and industry (n = 120) laboratories. There were institutional differences in risk assessment methods conducted before carrying out an experiment, for which fewer researchers from academia (18%) used forms issued by their organization as compared to government and industry researchers (51% and 43%, respectively). Safety training in all three institutions was reported to be similar; however, about 25% of all researchers were not trained on the specific hazard with which they worked. Risk perceptions were similar between respondents from all three institutions with respondents generally believing their personal risk to be significantly lower than what they assumed was predicated by their institution. The most striking difference between institutions was observed with self-reported PPE compliance behavior; respondents from industry labs were significantly more compliant with wearing a lab coat (87%) and eye protection (83%) than respondents from academic (66% and 61%, respectively) and government labs (73% and 76%, respectively). PPE compliance was highly associated with researchers’ perception of the level of risk in their lab; PPE compliance generally declined with lower perceived risk. In contrast to industry and government labs, PPE compliance of researchers in academia was significantly positively influenced when their Safety behavior was monitored. Active Safety involvement of the principal investigator (PI) or Laboratory supervisor also correlated significantly with lower numbers of accidents reported by students and postdoctoral fellows in academic labs. The data support the view that Laboratory Safety is positively impacted by active involvement of the PI or a dedicated Laboratory supervisor in academic institutions.

Proceedings of the 2012 University of California Center for Laboratory Safety Workshop
Journal of Chemical Health and Safety, 2013Co-Authors: James H. Gibson, Nancy L. WayneAbstract:The University of California Center for Laboratory Safety (Center) organized a Laboratory Safety workshop held on March 15–16, 2012 at the National Academy of Sciences’ Beckman Center in Irvine, California. The participants were a diverse group of 69 people who shared an interest in improving lab Safety in a way that will be embraced by those who supervise and perform lab research ( Appendix A ). Participants were from academia, private industry, national laboratories as well as local and federal government. They were Laboratory researchers from the physical sciences, engineering, and the biomedical and life sciences, and health and Safety professionals. Through a series of talks, panel discussions, and breakout sessions, the workshop allowed for dialogue between all participants on the many topics under the umbrella of lab Safety. One of the primary aims of the Center is to develop and optimize lab Safety practices based on evidence from research, and to make the outcomes from that research broadly and readily accessible to the research and health and Safety communities through peer-reviewed publications. In order to achieve this, the Center is looking to build productive collaborations and begin the process of developing research programs in lab Safety. The workshop was a first step in this process.
